Bombay Potatoes

Bombay Potato recipe taken from Anjum’s Indian Vegetarian Feast

Serves: 6
Prep Time: 20 mins
Cooking Time: 40 mins
Total Time: 60 mins
Difficulty: Easy

Main Ingredients

salt, to taste
3 large potatoes (around 900g), halved
15g root ginger, peeled weight
3 garlic cloves, peeled
2 large-ish tomatoes, one quartered, the other cut into wedges
4 tbsp vegetable oil
3/4 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 large onion, roughly chopped
2/ 3 tsp turmeric
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garam masala
1/2–3/4 tsp chilli powder
large handful of chopped coriander leaves

Method

“A restaurant dish, probably a hybrid of some of India’s more popular home-grown potato recipes. I have to say this dish beats my own Punjabi cumin potatoes, and it goes with almost everything.”

Bring a large pot of water to the boil and salt it well. Place in the potatoes and boil until just tender (up to 30 minutes). When cool enough to handle, peel and chop into 2.5cm cubes.

Blend together the ginger, garlic and quartered tomato until smooth.

Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the cumin and mustard seeds and, once the cumin start to darken, add the onion. Cook for a minute before adding the ginger and garlic mixture, the ground spices and salt. Sauté gently for one to two minutes or until the garlic smells cooked. If you are not sure, taste, it should seem harmonious.

Add the tomato wedges, stir well and cook for three to four minutes.

Add the potatoes and cook for another three to five minutes to finish cooking through and absorb the flavours.

Check the seasoning, stir in the coriander and serve.
